Chapter 4181
Yemima replied, "Since you were captured, things in the family have been very chaotic. Many elders started stirring things up and even proposed that a new successor be chosen. Your father almost gave in to them. Fortunately, the Grand Patriarch stepped up to calm the
situation down."
Yemima briefly explained the internal conflicts of the Doom Race.
Although the Doom Race was currently the strongest in the Greater Realms, they were not united. In fact, there were many conflicts and struggles internally.
The Doom Race was divided into many factions-Dolph's faction, Youri's faction, and the factions some elders had united to form.
James had a rough idea of the Doom Race's situation because he had Wyot's memories. However, it had been a long time since Wyot was captured. Thus, James did not know what happened while Wyot was imprisoned in the Heaven-Eradicating Sect. Therefore, he could only ask Yemima about the current situation.
Yemima suddenly halted in her tracks and looked at the disguised James.
"Your aura seems very strong now. Have you already stepped into the Quasi Acme Rank?"
James did not hide his aura when he came to the Doom Race's territory. Thus, the powerhouses of the Doom Race could easily sense his cultivation rank.
Yemima was the most talented woman in the Doom Race's history. She had great potential, and her cultivation base improved at a terrifying rate. She had long reached the Acme Rank. Moreover, she had mastered most of the Paths of heaven and earth and only lacked a few. Her Chaos Path was quite complete, and she could easily sense James' cultivation rank.
James smiled faintly and said, "Yeap. I've already stepped into the Quasi Acme Rank and am getting close to reaching the Acme Rank."
While speaking, he wrapped his arm around Yemima's slender waist and pulled her close.
Then, he said smilingly, "I'm close to reaching the request you've proposed."Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Yemima blushed and broke free from James' arms. She said frantically, "You should rest first. I'll check on the situation and see you later."
After speaking, Yemima hurriedly ran off.
James' smile vanished, and he left for the back mountain.
There were a few independent manors in the back mountain. James walked into one of the manors and entered a room. He plopped onto the bed, placed his hands behind his head, and looked at the ceiling pensively.
He had successfully infiltrated the Doom Race.
However, the Dooms were not united, and many of their factions were secretly competing for the position of the Doom Race's Patriarch's successor.
Moreover, his sudden return aroused
the suspicion of the Doom Race's powerhouses. Many were likely suspicious of his identity and would try many things to test him.
Even though he would easily pass their tests, gaining significant influence in the Doom Race would be hard.
James began to think about his next steps.
He was currently the successor of
the Doom Race's Patriarch.
Although the other factions had candidates to take over his position, the Grand Patriarch suppressed their schemes.
The Grand Patriarch was the strongest in the Doom Race and was rumored to be close to reaching the Caelum Acme Rank.
After such a long time, it was possible he was already a Caelum Acmean.
"As long as Dolph is alive, it'll be impossible for me to become the Patriarch to exercise influence over the Doom Race." James frowned.
He already had a plan in mind-getting rid of Dolph.
After the death of the current Patriarch, he would succeed in the position. Everything would be under his control after he became the Doom Race's Patriarch.
However, James knew the Doom Race would not accept him as their Patriarch at his current cultivation rank.
For him to convince the Doom Race to accept him, he would have to reach the Acme Rank.
He already had a complete Chaos Path, so he would definitely be able to gain a foothold in the Doom Race after entering the Acme Rank. "Huff!" James took a deep breath.
Now that he had successfully infiltrated the Doom Race, he had to take things one step at a time.
